Description
Electric central locking latch for left rear door. For Peugeot 206 and 406 Combi (Estate). Driver Side.
This electric central locking latch (door lock actuator) is designed as a direct replacement for the left rear (driver side) door on Peugeot 206 and Peugeot 406 Combi models. Ideal for professional garages and DIY mechanics, the unit restores reliable central locking operation, eliminating intermittent failures, grinding noises or a door that won’t lock or unlock with the remote or central locking switch. The actuator is commonly identified by the code 913758 and fits combi/estate body configurations where specified.
Built to operate as part of the vehicle’s central locking system, this latch transfers motion from the actuator motor to the mechanical locking mechanism inside the door. It secures the door when locked and releases it when unlocked, integrating with door rods, lock cylinders and electrical connectors. Replacement is a practical repair that avoids more complex door mechanism damage and restores vehicle security and convenience.
Technical Information
- Manufacturer: Stellantis
- Model: Peugeot 206, Peugeot 406 Combi
- Product Codes: 913758
- Other Numbers: N/A
- Position: Left Rear Door (Driver Side)
Compatibility And Fitment
Fits Peugeot 206 and Peugeot 406 Combi (estate) models where the left rear door uses an electric central locking latch. Always ensure the door layout matches (rear left, driver side) and that connectors and rod positions are consistent with the original unit before installation.
Installation Recommendations
- Safety First: Disconnect the negative battery terminal before starting to prevent short circuits or accidental airbag deployment.
- Access: Remove the inner door trim and any insulating foil or vapor barrier carefully to access the lock assembly. Keep fasteners and clips organized.
- Disconnect: Unplug the electrical connector and detach any linkage rods or cables from the lock. Note the orientation of clips and rods for reassembly.
- Remove: Unscrew the mounting bolts and remove the old latch. Inspect surrounding linkages, door handle mechanism and cables for wear or damage.
- Fit New Unit: Install the new latch, secure mounting bolts to original positions, reconnect rods and electrical connector. Ensure rods are clipped correctly and move freely without binding.
- Test Before Reassembly: Reconnect the battery and test locking/unlocking with the remote, central switch and manual handle to confirm correct operation before refitting the door trim.
- Final Steps: Refit the vapor barrier and door card, check for water-tightness and lubricate moving parts with appropriate grease if needed.
Most Common Failure Reasons
- Water Ingress And Corrosion: Moisture entering the mechanism corrodes electrical contacts and metal parts, causing intermittent or complete failure.
- Wear Of Plastic Gears And Components: Plastic gears inside the actuator can wear or strip over time, producing grinding noises and loss of function.
- Electrical Connector And Wiring Issues: Damaged plugs, broken wires or poor grounding lead to unreliable operation.
- Mechanical Fatigue: Repeated use, rusted linkages or seized components place extra load on the actuator and shorten service life.
Symptoms indicating replacement include a door that does not respond to central locking, slow or noisy locking operation, or only intermittent function. Replacing the latch with a quality unit restores security and prevents further wear to door linkages and handles.
If you are a professional mechanic or a competent DIYer, this direct-fit actuator provides a straightforward and cost-effective repair to return central locking reliability to your Peugeot 206 or 406 Combi.
